I was born and raised in Germany, where I received my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I worked as an educator in Germany for five years before immigrating to Canada, where I continued teaching in a French Montessori school for eight years. I am fluent in English, German, and Turkish, and speak a little Armenian. After taking a break from teaching to travel the world, I realized something was missing — and just how deeply children had impacted my life. That’s when I knew it was time to return to the one place that makes me truly happy. I call it KIDS — My Happy Place.
